Just in case you have had a 'Eureka' moment in the weeks you've been at home, and have an event idea for this coming Science Week, @scienceirel has revised the deadline for submission of applications to the SFI Discover Programme - Science Week Call 2020.
#DIASdiscovers
Look to the stars this evening, you might catch the International Space Station (ISS) visible over Ireland at 8.45pm.
🌌
DIAS completed the first ever Irish experiment on the ISS using DIAS detectors to measure the effects of cosmic radiation on the human body.
#DIASdiscovers
The call for applications for the ESO-supported Summer AstroCamp, organised by @Astro_UP , opens on 1.04.2020. The programme is intended for secondary school students from 42 different countries https://t.co/vZufdL9D1mpic.twitter.com/GEupOFId7j
